No Barcelona :-( but overnight in Monte Carlo!

Yep that's right our cruise sailed into some northern winds from Africa, which I guess is some rare occasion, but gave or baby cruise ship quite a scare! We had 40 foot waves and 70 mile an hour winds, and to the coast guard that meant we had to turn around and could no longer make it to Barcelona :-( We did however get another day at sea and an early arrival in Monaco.

We decided to take the night and fancy ourselves up and headed out to THE Monte Carlo Casino! Terence ended up winning a little which covered our entrance fees, some Perrier, and a little extra play money! This is the most expensive place ever, you wouldn't believe the cars here!

Today we headed to Nice on the train and toured the rest of Monaco on our own. Tommorow is Florence then Rome then home, boo.
